In spite of being walked on at intervals I slept pretty well.

When I waked it was three o'clock in the morning, just, and we were standing in the train shed at Liege, and hospital corps men were coming aboard with hot coffee and more raw sausages for the wounded.

Among the Germans, sausages are used medicinally.

I think they must keep supplies of sausages in their homes, for use in cases of accident and sickness.
I got up and looked from the window.

The station was full of soldiers moving about on various errands.
